With this new route, the WestJet Group, including Sunwing Airlines, will reach a total of 13 Mexican cities connected to 24 Canadian cities by 2025. During peak travel periods, the group will offer over 200 weekly flights, positioning itself as the Canadian operator with the most direct routes to Mexico.
